Anderson, Sophie,

The girl who speaks bear / Sophie Anderson ; illustrated by Kathrin Honesta. - 411 pages : illustrations, map ; 20 cm.

They call me Yanka the Bear. Not because of where I was found - only a few people know about that. Found abandoned in a bear cave as a baby, Yanka has always wondered about where she is from. She tries to ignore the strange whispers and looks from the villagers, wishing she was as strong on the inside as she is on the outside. But, when she has to flee her house, looking for answers about who she really is, a journey far beyond one that she ever imagined begins - from icy rivers to smouldering mountains meeting an ever-growing herd of extraordinary friends along the way.

Pre-adolescent.
